THMS Badgers Could Use Some Help

If you're a Tucson High Magnet School alum or supporter with some love in your heart for those Badgers, a letter that went out recently from the football booster club president asking for your help with the high school's football program.

Specifically they could those brown things that every football game needs—footballs:

Badger Alumni and Supporters,

I am sending this letter in regards to the Tucson High School Football Program. Unfortunately due to budget cuts our program does not receive financial assistance from TUSD to provide necessities for our program and players. An example of this lack of funding is last season we did not have enough helmets. This prevented several players from practicing and playing in games. Currently we do not have enough footballs for this coming spring and fall seasons. The Champions Football Booster Club also assists in providing team meals, team banquets, equipment purchases and many more needs the program incurs.

You can support our program by sending support, we are also seeking sponsors and monetary donations. The Champions Football Booster Club is a 501c tax credit. We will provide the tax credit number to those that request it. We want you to know that 100% of the donations will go to all levels of the football program.

We are expecting big things from our program this year. Coach Argraves begins his 4th season coming off a successful 7-4 season and a trip to the playoffs. Coach Argraves has also made some key additions to his coaching staff by bringing back long time THS coaches, Coach Todd Mayfield and Coach Ken Locklin. Along with his current great Coaches. Thank you for your time and support for THS Football. If you have any questions or would like to assist the program, please feel free to contact me.
